Some people don't take secrets to the grave. This man makes sure of it

Joshua Weaver offers an extraordinary service: people leave him instructions to carry out after their death, and he ensures they are fulfilled. From delivering letters and gifts to surprises at funerals, some requests even manage to embarrass him.

Joshua Weaver offers an extraordinary service: people leave him instructions to carry out after their death, and he ensures they are fulfilled. In an interview with the British newspaper Daily Star, Weaver said that among the tasks he is asked to perform are delivering personal letters, passing on gifts, revealing secrets, and even organizing pranks during funerals. One amusing request came from a woman who wanted to ensure her secret cookie recipe would not disappear with her, asking that the recipe be engraved on her tombstone. Weaver says he is sometimes required to deliver particularly personal messages or reveal details that family members never knew, and the work can become embarrassing. He sees his work as a way to allow people to complete things they did not get to do in their lives, and to give them some control over how they will be remembered.
